Today I tried an incurs in converting deb files into packages rpm for Fedora 28.
As you well know, the alien utility is used to solve this problem.
The Debian package I tried to convert is the Steam gaming utility.

In conclusion: Fedora distro solves a number of shortcomings in the field of package management, but the efforts of the development team do not resolve to cover user requirements. However, the alien utility remains a very important step in the development process that should be updated and optimized to implement new software. I would add here my attempts to create Fedora packets with software that works normally on this distro (Blender 3D - version 2.8).
Let's hope that the Fedora development team will resolve these issues until the next version of this distro.
